[LG Optimus 2x] Piter1225:
No, it won't touch your /system partition, also recovery (CWM) will be untouched, LG's original ROM won't be flashed.

It will just clean /data and /cache partitions, so will remove all apps you have installed and your all personal settings, such as Google Account informations, etc..
[LG Optimus 2x] treeo:
So it is basicly a "soft reset" that CWM does?

Cause LG recommend you to do a hard reset to get better battery life time... Mine sux a-hole tbh.

The standard way to do it is VOL DOWN + POWER BTN, but now i will get into CWM instead =P
[LG Optimus 2x] Koetermann:
I'm having exactly the same problem by using Ubuntu 10.10, 32-Bit with filesystem ext4.

With the SDK platform tools it's okay:

test@test:~/android/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools$ sudo ./adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
028xxxxxxxxxxx	device

But when I try to execute the clockworkmod no device will be found:

test@test:~/android/clockworkmod$ ./install-clockworkmod-linux.sh
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
error: device not found

[LG Optimus 2x] nukleuzN:
Wondering if there could be some probs with porting?

As you can see in the “SDK“ output it refers to a portno. wich CWM doesn't !?
[LG Optimus 2x] Koetermann:
Hmm, maybe this is a workaround. But isn't it then nessesary to be root on a phone to execute

dd if=/data/local/clockworkmod.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7

???

Regards

Koetermann

EDIT: Yes, it is nessescary to have root rights to run the clockworkmod.img directly on the phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] treeo:
If you do it from a terminal on phone you also need to type "su" before the line above
[LG Optimus 2x] drrogern:
I've googled and searched this forum tons of times now so I apologize if its already here.

Whenever I try to flash a rom in clockwork recovery I cant find the rom .zip file! It shows files that has been deleted, but not new files.

I hope someone can help me.
[LG Optimus 2x] Korumera:
Did you put the .zip file on the internal SD or the external SD, you need to put it on a external SD in order to install it :).
[LG Optimus 2x] drrogern:
Omg! I did put it on the internal storage.. I was certain I did it right :P

I guess im not as used to my phone as I thought^^

Thanks m8.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Hi. I can't seem to be able to install this recovery.

The phone is rooted.

This is what happens when I run the .bat file:

D:\lol>adb-windows push psneuter /data/local/psneuter

1114KB/s (557962 bytes in 0.489s)

D:\lol>adb-windows shell chmod 4755 /data/local/psneuter

D:\lol>adb-windows shell /data/local/psneuter

mmap() failed. Operation not permitted

After which it proceeds to transfer the recovery on the phone (successfully) and then closes after the next command (I would've posted a screenshot but I can't cause I'm a noob on the forum)

If I boot the phone in recovery mode (power+down vol) it simply shows me the lg logo and stands there until I remove the battery.

I installed Rom Manager and tried to (stupidly) install the recovery from there (after having this problem) but it seems that it still has the same problem.

When I open Rom Manager it tells me that I have 2.5.1.4 installed which is obviously a lie.

Please help me.

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] maexbecks:
hey, had the same problem here, so i copied the adb file from android sdk to the clockworkmod folder and renamed it to adb-linux. worked perfectly. the phone still works and i can also boot into the recoverymod.

havent tried to backup though, because i dont have a sd card right now.
[LG Optimus 2x] thommic:
I have the same issues more or less. I installed beta 1 which worked fine except the menu issue where some points was not at the correct place.

I installed beta 3. Cant reboot with the recovery on android. with the beta 1 that worked fine.

Booting manually into clockwork works but all menu points are without any function!

Hmm...I keep getting sd card errors when I use recovery. Seems to happen when I wipe. After that, recovery refuses to mount my sd card ("cannot mount sdcard") even though it works fine otherwise.

I tried to format it in my x2 and in my computer including full format but it didn't work. The only solution is to format it in my old G1. My card works fine otherwise on my computer.

Any idea how to solve that?:confused:

[LG Optimus 2x] oasen87:
Hello there. I hope im in the right thread..

I got a really frustrating problem with CWM. I used it on Sunday with great result and no problem doing a nandroid and installing custom rom from my external sd card.. Today when i wanted to install the new FR6 it says that it cant mount sdcard.

I´ve tried formatting the card but nothing seems to work. I wonder if it´s maybe some configurations on the device that is messing up.

Is there someone in here that are expiriencing the same problem as me?
[LG Optimus 2x] bullyfrog:
I face that pretty often. Think it's the phone not presenting the sd to clockwork. I notice this can happen when we restart the phone. Have you tried a full power off. Then power on while pressing the down volume key? Keep pressing both buttons until you see the phone actually booting into clockwork. That usually works for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mehrsau:

ext3/4

Soo, there are different versions for ext3 and ext4 file systems. Stock ROM uses ext3 so I have to flash the ext3 version, righty? Won't this trouble the system after MoDaCo changes the file system to ext4?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
If you flash the ext3 version, nothing will change to ext4
[LG Optimus 2x] machtwerk:
Sorry, maybe my question was somehow messy as I didn't clarify whether I spoke of the ROM or the recovery. So, here it goes:

Standard ROM has ext3 file system. So I gotta flash CWM recovery ext3 version.

MoDaCo ROM will automatically switch the file system to ext4.

Second: 'chmod +x install-clockworkmod-mac.sh' (without ') – Enter

(nothing happens in the Terminal)

Third: './install-clockworkmod-mac.sh' – Enter

Then what happens is:

The first time I did it, something definitely happened in Terminal, but I wasn't able to use the Recovery App to boot into CWM, neither the Volume-Button-Method worked.

Help :(

Can't get inot Recovery Mode (either)

Ok, I'm going crazy

I've rooted and installed ClockWork without any big trouble. I restart with power+vol-down and wait untill recovery shows up. I then release both buttons and wait - after a bit, the screeen goes blank and I restart into a fully wiped LG os. Which isn't what I'm going for at all...
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
That's the behaviour of stock recovery (it auto-wipes your device).

Sounds like CWM didn't install/stick.
[LG Optimus 2x] Jakkelomme:
I think you might be right - it seems like I can't get it to stick, even though everything seems to execute right.

When I run the commands in Terminal (On mac) my phone closes the USB connection just at the end and I get a warning to eject my discs on OSX but Terminal doesn't show any errors and neither does my phone. I place the Clockwork Mod-files on my SD card and direct Terminal there and run the commands - is that right?

EDIT: NO it wasn't, the files should be run from the computer. I'm such a n00b. Sorry 'bout wasting your time.

When do you know that you have flashed CWM? I tried like 10 times, but every time my cellphone went back to factory mode, upon trying to reboot with vol. down and power button...

I do have a file named clockwork on my cellphone.

Thus i can't seem to be alble to flash a custom rom....

In other words, it seems i'm unable to install CWM

I connect my phone with debugging on. I click on the install.bat thing for windows, and a black box pops up for like a split second...

Edit the batch file and add as last line: pause

Then run it as you did before, by double clicking.

Trouble installing ClockworkMod

Hi,

Trying to install the clockworkMod recovery. I ran the .bat file from my PC, all appeared OK. When I re-boot my phone with the vol down button pressed I momentarily see the colckworkMod recovery screen. However, when I release the buttons the phone just continues on to re-boot the usual system. I have no opportunity to use the recovery tools.
[LG Optimus 2x] mcnob:
And you've definitely installed the drivers properly?
[LG Optimus 2x] rgwebster:
re: drivers installed.. Not entirely sure, how can I tell?

But I can see that clockworkMod recovery is on the phone. If I hold the power and volume button I can see the menu etc. I'm not sure if it is important, but I do not have an external sd card installed!

Thanks for any help

UPDATE: As I hold the power button down I can see that the menu item highlighted is " reboot system". When I release the power button it says rebooting system at the bottom of the menus. Is this because I do not have an external SD card installed or because I have not installed ClockworkMod recovery correctly?

[LG Optimus 2x] Beeklaan:
When you release the power when you are already inside the menu, you will click the reboot system now, which is the top one.

To solve this, just release the powerbutton before you are in the menu, OR (what i do) is just keep pressing/holding the power button and switch in the menu with your vol. down and up buttons.
